English Thieves And THEY ne.
From Chamb.rs,s Journal.

Although a man always locks upon a
clever theft with an air of romance, he
never quite realizes the position until
the thief or sharper has heeced himself.
We are apt to laugh ct the misfortunes
of man who puts his head out Of his
cab on a fCggy day in answer to a knock
st the window, and finds his hat disap-
pearing in the gloom. Nor do we show
more sympathy with the man who collides
with another individual in the street, and,
who, on having his hat, which had fallen,
handed back with profuse apologies for
the accident, finds from its size and gen
eral appearance that not many hours be
fore it must have adorned a scarecrOw.
But these incidents in no way illustrate the
GOODNESS of the professional chief, who
doesnot usually aim at tribes.
AT Birmingham not long ago. a thief
was detected in the act Of stealing a gentle
mans watch In bis haste to escape he
ran into the arms OF q detective who had
been watching him for some time. Nstur-
ally the thief must have felt somewhat

SIIAKSPEARE'S OLD HOME.
A Fee Demanded Of All Who Visit It,

A Fee Demanded Of All Who Visit It,
New York World
The Shakespeare house was purchased in
the same way as was Mount Vernon, the
home of Washington. 1t is rominally the
property of the people. With us Mount
Vernon is controlled by all association of
ladies, who find much amusement, com
fort, and importance in directing the
affairs of that place, bot there has never
been any charge of admission made to
Mount Vernon. The public can not view
the Shakespeare house without paying
sixpence to see the living rooms and six
pence more to view the second part of
the house, which is filled up with a lot
OF rubbish, supposed to have relation to
the Shakspearean period. This repre-
sents about 25 cents of our money, and
as there is an average of $50 visitors q
day TO the Shakespeare house, this would
foot up an income of $40 per day. Ger
tainly this great amount of money is not
all required for keeping up very plain
house. Two or three hundred dollars a
year would surely cover that expendi-
ture. What becomes of this large fund
would afford an interesting subject of in
quiry, | should say, with the people of
England, who are supposed to own the
place
Nearly all of the show places of Eng
land have entrance fees charged for adj
mission. THE ruins of Kenil worth
castle, near Stratford, are supposed to be
the most interesting ruins III England.
A visitor TO them brings away few dis
tinct impressions. First a quiokening
sense and appreciation of the magnif
cent story of Scott written in the neigh
borhood of this once great castle. Second,
the realization of the fitness, beauty, and
grandeur of the theater upon which so
many historical pageants during Eliza
beth's time were displayed. Third feel
ing Of pity and indignation for the ruth
less destruction perpetrated by Crom-
well, who disu.ntted this noble fortress
creating a ruin which no one has since
to restore. Fourth, intense
admiration for the thrifty spirit of the
earl of Clarendon, who in acquiring this
property hedged it carefully IL and per
mitted visitors to see il upon a payment
of pence each, or cents our money.
In this way he derives from this property
q handsom income. The Sabbath is OBJ
served at this institution by refusing to
admit the public for the sacrilegiOus
price of pence. Those who are willing
to pay Is pence on the holy Sabbath day
can have the privilege of inspecting this
most profitable property of the most
noble earl of Clarendon.

The Highest Church in Europe.

The very highest church in Europe is
the pilgrimage chapel of the St. Marie de
Ziteit, above Salux, in the canton of
Granbunden. 1t lies ,, 434 meters above
the sea level-nearly 8, 900 feet high
ABOVE the forest, near the limits of per
petual snow. 1t is only open during the
summer time of that region-or, as the
folks Whereabouts reckon, from st. John
the Baptlst's day to ST. Michael's day
and is used only by the Alphers, who re-
main there through the summer with
their cows and goats, aud occasionally by
hunters in search of the ch6raois and
marmot. All the inhabitants of Salux
climb up thither on midsummer day to
assist at the first mass and to hear the
first sermon of the year, and there is also
a crowded congregation on Michaelmas
day, at the last service of the year. From
time to time few stray pilgrims from
the Granbunden Oberland and the Tyrol
find their way there. The second highest
church probably in Europe, that of Mon
stein, also open only in the summer, be-
longs to Graubunden. At our visit the
hale old preacher mad five foreign tour
lists f or his congregation.
